Murder: Life Insurance

A woman killed her own husband in Amritsar to claim the insurance money. The husband had been unwell for a long time, which had caused a financial strain for the couple. To solve this, the wife killed her husband so as to claim the insurance money.

The incident has been reported from Bulara village in Amritsar’s Jandiala region where a woman, Narendra Kaur, accompanied her husband, Manjeet Singh, to Beas to buy his medicine on May 5. Later, the police found Manjeet’s dead body in a pool of blood.

During the investigation, it was found that his wife was the prime suspect. The Deputy Superintendent of Police (DSP), Sukhwinder Pal Singh, said, “During interrogation, Kaur admitted to her crime. She said that the house was in shambles due to financial instability. All the money was going towards her husband’s treatment who had been unwell for a long time. Being a Life Insurance Company (LIC) agent herself, she knew that she could benefit from her husband’s insurance money and so, she killed him.”

He also added that she had murdered him using a sharp weapon. The woman has been arrested and further investigation is underway.
